🖥️ Anker USB C Hub PowerExpand - 8-in-1 Adapter with 100W Power Delivery, 4K 60Hz HDMI, Ethernet, USB C/A Ports, SD/microSD Card Reader - MacBook Pro Compatible Review

Knowing quite a bit about USB-C hubs, I wanted to try this one as it announced many of the features I was looking for. The bad reviews are true though – this product is far from production ready and there is a good chance it won't be ready to go right away. I was looking for a USB-C hub that outputs the native display signal and found out the limitations of USB-C. This hub must provide 4k@60Hz display while remaining USB ports are in 2.0 mode. However, when plugged in, all I get is annoying…

I was looking for a hub that could replace all my individual adapters and I had a few requirements that I felt were appropriate: USB-A ports - USB- C Data Port - USB PD (100W) - Gigabit Ethernet - SD card slot - HDMI (4K 60Hz) Many hubs on Revain support all of the above EXCEPT a 4K 60Hz HDMI port. So after much searching, I was thrilled to see this recently. I've personally tried everything but the SD card slot and it worked great, although I'd love to stress test all ports to see how it…

So I bought this device trusting the Anker products I've used in the past. However, this turned out to be a disappointment. What works: (1) Charging works pretty well and has no issues (2) HDMI display port works pretty well. What doesn't work: (1) Ethernet works, but disconnects/reconnects frequently. The problem is that when connected to the remote system via something like SSH, I have to reconnect each time, resulting in massive crashes (2). Keyboard and mouse plugged into USB ports also…

I have two copies of this unit which I will be returning this week and both have the following behavior so I assume this is intentional and not a fault is . I bought this device because Anker is a very reliable brand and there are several (seriously, less than 3 legitimate brands) USB-C hubs that have BOTH power pass-through and an additional USB-C port. So you can charge and use another USB-C device at the same time. I use a USB-C webcam with my laptop, and thanks to remote work, I'm in…

UPDATE Upgraded to 5 stars only because of anker's absolutely amazing customer service. I have always been a fan of Anker products and have heard that they have good customer service. But I was amazed by Anker's support team, they do absolutely everything to make the customer happy. ORIGINAL RATING: 3 stars. Overall I like the product, but the Ethernet port offers less speed. I have a MacBook Pro, when I connect to the internet via Wi-Fi I get around 250Mbps. When I get internet via the…

Original Review (updates below): ------ The moment I read this thing I noticed at Revain, I bought it and it literally just arrived. Finally, 4K60 is just USB-C with other connectors (including up to 10Gbps) at a reasonable price. Unfortunately, the first two things I've done with it have both been disappointing. Getting to the point, Power Passthrough doesn't work with one of their own chargers. The first device I've tried connecting this to is my Anker PD4 with a single USB-C cable as the…

I just got a MacBook Air M1 and have been reading Revain reviews on many hubs where the People have had mixed results when receiving 4K at 60Hz over HDMI. To be on the safe side, I bought this and another well-reviewed USB-C hub that also claims to support 4K@60Hz over HDMI, a 12-in-1 USB-C docking station from VAVA. I am happy to say that this Anker hub has performed flawlessly. I connected my MBA's power supply to a hub, then the hub to my MBA and everything just worked. And in my case, I'm…

I bought this hub to connect my 2020 13" Macbook Air with M1 chip to LG 32UL950-W 32" LED Ultrafine 4K UHD-class monitor with Thunderbolt 3 connectivity. The hub features two USB-C ports, one dedicated to powering your Mac power bank and the other for connecting to peripherals like an LG display. There are two USB-C ports, but LG's user guide doesn't explain if they're for different purposes. I used the USB-C cable that came with the LG display, as per LG's instructions specified to connect it…

Iteration 1 received, other reviews on the subject are very erroneous. Anker just lost all my trust. You know that iteration 1 has problems. Why not remove the entire inventory from Revain?
